Character History

Tabula Rasa

Samuel introduces Damien to Sylar and reveals that Damien can heal memories. Damien guides Sylar into the hall of mirrors and asks him if he is ready to know the truth. Sylar says he is and Damien places his hands on Sylar's head for a moment. He then exits the hall, leaving Sylar behind. Damien later watches on as Sylar once again enters the hall or mirrors. After Sylar is baptized into the family, Damien joins the other carnies in eating dinner.

Brother's Keeper

Joseph tells Samuel that he thought Samuel would build the fire for that night's dinner. Samuel says that he figured Edgar and Damien could handle it.

Thanksgiving

Damien attends the carnival's Thanksgiving dinner. Later, Hiro tells Samuel to give him Charlie's whereabouts or he'll leave. Anticipating Hiro's rebellion, Samuel has Damien nearby. As Hiro turns to go, Damien grabs Hiro's head and uses his power, seemingly causing Hiro's memories to revert to an earlier period. Hiro teleports away while a shocked Samuel asks Damien what he did.

Graphic Novel:The Trip, Part 1

The Art of Deception

Damien is seen listening to Samuel Sullivan's speech right before the gunshots start. Later, he helps Samuel walk over to Lydia, and holds a rope while watching Noah in the House of Mirrors.

The Wall

Samuel takes Claire to see Noah in the House of Mirrors. He explains that Damien has the gift to reveal a person's memories for them to experience and asks Damien to show Claire the truth about her father. Damien places his hands on Noah's head and closes his eyes, projecting Noah's memories onto the mirrors. When Claire has seen what Samuel wanted her to see, Damien stops the memories. When Claire does not change her mind, Damien shows her more memories, including the death of Kate Bennet. Claire wonders what happened next and Damien continues to show her all of Noah's hidden memories until Claire runs from the House of Mirrors, seemingly horrified at what she saw.

Evolved Human Abilities

Damien has the ability to manipulate a person's memories through touch. He can project a person's hidden or forgotten memories for them to re-experience and is able to project these memories onto reflective surfaces such as mirrors. He is also able to alter a person's memory, effectively "scrambling" their mind to the point where they cannot separate fiction from reality.
